Report of the 2025 Trade Period End
To Tomizaki from Trading Office
Thank you all for your hard work. Today is Christmas Eve!
The Western market will have shortened trading hours, and today and tomorrow will be the time with the lowest liquidity of the year. Be careful of sudden moves in thin liquidity!
Well, as of yesterday (12/23), I have finished trading for 2025 a bit early.
I will take some time off, and I plan to resume trading on January 5, 2026 (Monday).
In the end, I think I will keep watching the charts, but for now, thank you for your work this year!
Scalping tends to give the impression that there are 24-hour opportunities because the profit per trade is small, but that is not the case. By aiming for times with a certain level of high volatility, you can significantly reduce the difficulty of trading.
The times I am targeting are near the London market open and near the New York market open.
・London market open time (UTC−4 in US daylight saving time / UTC−5 in US standard time)
・New York market open time (UTC−4 in US daylight saving time / UTC−5 in US standard time)
After the release of US indicators/events, volatility increases and there are more opportunities. However, in the first few minutes after the release, spreads can widen, so it is essential to enter only after they return to normal spreads.
Please check the US indicators/events schedule in advance. By understanding the times when opportunities arise, you can efficiently accumulate profits.
Also, absolutely avoid positioning immediately before US indicators/events releases. If it goes against you, it can be disastrous. Getting stopped out instantly—careless mistakes are not acceptable, absolutely not.
US indicators/events schedules can be checked on the websites of each securities company/FX broker.
Of course, there are many other points besides the three above, but I have explained the essential points you should keep in mind when scalping the dollar-yen pair.
